Football Manager 2022 Reviews
Over the years I've had a love/hate relationship with Football Manager. Some years I can't put it down, others I can barely make it through a season. Football Manager 2022 is a cracking entry in the series and has added plenty to make it feel fresh when compared to previous years, the data hub being the cream of the crop.
Small meaningful improvements to nearly every aspect of the game is where you want to be as a gaming company, regardless of the genre, and Sports Interactive delivers with Football Manager 2022.
Football Manager 2022 marks a slow transition to a better game, and the third and final version next year promises to be even more exciting. This is is as good as always, but the new elements are less than we would have liked.

Football Manager 2022 richest, most nuanced, and most dangerously addictive iteration of Sports Interactive's yearly sim series yet.
There's no big breakthrough in football manager 2022 compared to the previous generation, but some of the small fixes that have come to fruition have given players a more comfortable experience.

Football Manager 2022 has gone from being a bit unbeatable to the convenience of being unbeatable, but it would be unfair to ignore the great improvements they have made. If you're addicted to this species, there's little chance you won't like it. If you are going to start for the first time, it is worth looking at the older versions first.

Football Manager 2022 is a great take on the most popular sport of the world. It provides ways for both casual and obsessive fans to get more involved with their favorite club or almost any other team they want. The new animation system changes the experience quite a lot, both visually and tactically. Some transfer action might feel a little unreal and the game still generates new players that sometimes make little sense. But this is a solid game with a lot of options and plenty of incredible moments.
Football Manager 2022 si the most complex football experience ever with a lot of improvemenets, but some bugs as well.

Football Manager 2022 is a strategy game that continues to improve with more in-depth features that helps you succeed on the virtual pitch. The new Data Hub brings a more profound analysis system to the game that helps you pick the best line-ups on match day. The endless hours of tinkering with my club’s tactics, transfers, squad, and staff have yielded meaningful results in my club’s progression. And I still have many hours of fun ahead of me with one of the best sports simulators.
Football Manager 2022 is the next steps in the evolution of the best football manager simulator. It seems that the AI listens to the players and goes in the right direction, which gives us an increasingly complete product.

It's a must-play, the perfect next step for existing FM fanatics, and the ideal place to start if you've never dipped your toe in the deep end of management simulations. You'll be able to get started easily and stop playing after just one more game. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to lose 6-1 to Liverpool in a failed attempt to implement a Gegenpress at Reading FC.
Overall there are still small aspects that fall short of expectations, just details in the grand scheme of things, the truth is that we are facing the best and latest football simulator with another year in which Sports Interactive presents its loyal fans with another huge entry into the Football Manager franchise.

Football Manager 2021 was the best entry in the series for some time, and it’s safe to say that Football Manager 2022 continues that trend, by building upon the huge leaps it took last year. The improvements this time around aren’t quite as groundbreaking as last time because they’re a little more subtle and less on-the-nose, but they’re there nevertheless, meaning it is a brilliant time to be a Football Manager player. I just wish I didn’t play quite so much of the last instalment, because I’m not quite ready to start again after leaving behind my beloved Oxford United squad just a few weeks ago.
FM22 will consume hundreds of hours as you try to create the perfect team and tactics. Newcomers to the series will find a simulator with hundreds of variables to master, but veterans may miss a little more innovation and depth.

With some truly remarkable additions and a few missteps along the way, Football Manager 2022 continues the series’ fine form for yet another year.
Football Manager 2022 is the undisputed king of sports managers. Perhaps this delivery sins of being too continuous and does not offer excessive news, but it is still an excellent game -and a franchise-.

Football Manager 2022 is the best in the franchise so far and makes sure that it’ll continue to sit at the top of the (small) mountain of sports management games.
